Things to Do
Visit the 56 Signers of the Declaration of Independence Memorial
As you walk through Constitution Gardens, walk across the footbridge to Signers Island. The stones of the Memorial to the 56 Signers of the Declaration of Independence could have been tombstones had events turned out differently. Celebrate these men of courage and vision at our nation's founding by paying homage to these 56 American heroes! Granite stones include facsimiles of their signatures, the location of their homes, and their occupations.
